Revenue

Government Funding

​Revenues for both small and mid-sized organizations come through numerous avenues. Government agencies, whether HUD, state, or local grants, all require accurate application, execution, and reporting.

​

Alacritas Advisers can provide guidance and assistance for grant application, execution, and fulfillment of  reporting mandates. Specifically, Alacritas Advisers can aid organizations regarding:

 

• ​Continuum of Care (CoC) Program: supportive housing, rapid and transitional housing, and coordinated entry

• Emergency Solutions Grant: outreach, prevention, emergency shelter, and rapid rehousing

• State and local grants

​

Applying for grants is time consuming and requires both quantitative and qualitative data. Key to being successful is ensuring the programs applied for have undergone a process to understand the true costs and actual measures that will be needed. Knowing the true costs of a program allows for a more accurate submission. Understanding the metrics that will be needed will help the organization manage expectations and improve reporting.
